Lunch at Forbidden Duck Singapore was one of the best meal after Madame Fan Singapore. Highly recommend.
They were friendly and cheerful. Even my diva sister acknowledged that they did an excellent job.
I am told that the interior and menu is the same as their restaurant in Hong Kong.
Expectations are high given the Michelin accolade of Qi.
At the end of the meal, my dining companions and I were saying how our stomachs were most probably as hot as the pits of hell.
My main gripe was the service, though admittedly we did visit the establishment on its very first official day of operations (3 May 2018) – so I hope that’s sorted out now.
Overall we had an enjoyable lunch at Qi – House Of Sichuan Singapore. The dishes we had that day were humble dishes with no exotic ingredients.
Compared to Shisen Hanten, a Sichuan restaurant which also received a star in Japan and Singapore, Qi isn’t as refined or as subtle.
Dim Sum is available only for lunch.
Personally, I’m excited by the prospect of Forbidden Duck making a presence in Singapore’s culinary scene, which will make it an even more competitive one where all diners will benefit in the long run.
